My gaming group had dissolved due to people moving, getting married, etc and WoW came along at just the right time. The allure is that if you pick an RP server you can find an RP guild and RP with dozens of people over the course of a night, not just the three or four at the table. The game is also devilishly well designed - it's very easy to get instant gratification with a level-up or new magic items or whatever. By the time you hit level 60 though everything is designed to suck up as much of your time as possible. Faction grinding, raiding, high-end instances, PVP all take hours and hours of gameplay to get anywhere. By the time you hit 60 though you have a massive emotional investment in the character so you gladly play more and more to get the *phat lewt*I finally broke away from it when I saw what it was doing to my life. My wife and I had gotten to the point where we'd come home from work and immediately log on and play till we went to bed (late). Rinse repeat every day. My wife still plays but not as much as she did. We've finally located some gamers up here in AK and my new campaign starts today. Nothing beats good ol' D&D  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" /></blockquote>
